ok so does the Car-100 come with a guarantee? - whats covered? - what do you get in the box when its delivered?
how long does it take to fully charge it & how long does it last for?
What happens when it gets out of range?
What, if anything happens if it gets paired to more than one device and they both attempt to control it - is this possible?
Answers on a postcard! Cheers
Gub

A year's warranty covering defective product only it seems.
It can be charged for up to an hour and then driven for up to an hour on the charge.
Dunno about the others questions yet.

if it goes out of range, you lose the bluetooth connection, and the car stops. (would have thought that was obvious me self

)
you can only pair one phone at a time me thinks. if it is already paired to a phone, and you ry and pair it to another, then the first phone just wont be able to drive it!

for people with lots of questions you can also go to the
CAR-100 global support page and look at the manual and FAQ...

Thanks, & point taken Massuer, just inquisitive.
Final question: Can the shell be removed without difficulty. If so, can't imagine it would be too hard to replace the motor with a beefier one, with a bit of soldering. ok so it'll void the warranty, but be a lot more fun to tinker around with it if its no more than a toy car with a Bluetooth chip.

MixiN seems to think it can, and there's instructions on the support page for removing the top of the car.

If it was me I wouldn't beef up the engine... just nitro in there!
(better get a bluetooth repeater though to extend your range!)

there is actually a little bit on the FAQ on the support page about taking the case off.
it is really easy. just pull the front of the car away from the chassis, and then lift it off
not sure about putting a more powerful motor in though
would be cool if you could!
